My average splits for a 5k are about 7 seconds faster than they were for 10k. I should probably go a little faster throughout so I can’t speed up much at the end. Rowing is hard. #rowingmachine#concept2rower

I may be the slowest bitch in here but when I first started rowing I could barely make it 250 meters without my entire body uncontrollably shaking and feeling like I was going to pass out. Now I can do 4,000 meters with my entire body uncontrollably shaking and feeling like I am going to pass out. I think they call that progress. Thank you @karno_fit for kicking my ass every single day! #rowing#rowingmachine

Please read - big ask for my friends and family out there. I’ve been posting about Row Vigor for a while now so here’s more info: Row Vigor started out as a client of Kinetic Legal and soon I became close with the owner and invested in the mission and idea behind the app. It is mobile application that allows users to connect Bluetooth capable rowing machines to your iphone where you can get access to rowing fitness classes on demand and live, track your meters, row famous rivers, etc. I love the idea behind using your phone as a mobile fitness boutique for rowing, which has been a life changing fitness movement for me to get me in shape without the impact on my knees. Last year, I became head of business development of the company and brought the idea of marketing the app to crossfit boxes since they already use rowers on a daily basis and understand the value of an incredible rowing-based fitness regime. The response has been incredible and we want to expand our market and decided to do a crowdfund to build the financial stability to take the company to the next level, with improved content, quality media, amazing coaches, and make the app droid capable. That’s where you come in. Crowdfunds are a relatively new investment tool where unaccredited investors can invest as little as $100 (but obviously more if you feel compelled) as an unaccredited investor in exchange for equity in the company. We are using Microventures as our platform for investment, who we are excited to partner with. I believe in Row Vigor because we have the opportunity to bring quality fitness to anyone that has access to a rowing machine instead of requiring people to buy fancy and expensive equipment. It allows people to access fitness without a huge pocket book, which can fundamentally change fitness for our country. So many people walk into a 24 hour fitness, which is the only gym they can afford, but have no idea what to do or how to do it. But if they could follow our

⚠️The rower⚠️: one of the BEST & most efficient workout machines ever invented...🚣🏻‍♀️ 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 Rowing is a full-body exercise that helps build and tone your muscles, improve your cardiovascular function and increase your stamina. It is effective and safe beause it is low-impact and soft on joints. 💪🏼Weight Loss: Rowing burns calories rapidly, making it a suitable addition to your workout regimen if weight loss is your chief priority. A vigorous 30-minute workout on a rowing machine can burn between 250 and 400 calories! 💪🏼Cardiovascular benefits: Rowing is an endurance exercise that increases heart rate and oxygen consumption. Over time, regular cardio exercise leads to improved cardiovascular function and can reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. 💪🏼Muscle Toning: Rowing is a total-body workout that uses every major muscle group. At the beginning of each stroke the back muscles, quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles are activated. As the stroke continues the abdominals, triceps, chest muscles, shoulder muscles, wrist flexors/ extensors and glutes are also activated. As you finish the stroke, your biceps and obliques are working real hard! 💪🏼You can also use the rower’s seat for dynamic planks 🤓🤫
